Speech therapy for children with cleft palate
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of speech therapy for children with cleft palate. It looks at how well each type works and how much it costs, to help find the best way to improve your child's speech.
